Metabolism of polychlorinated norbornenes by Clostridium butyricum.
1972
STUDIES of the metabolism of cyclodien-insecticides, such as dieldrin, endrin, endosulphan, have revealed valuable information about their fate in the ecosystem1. With all metabolites identified so far, however, the hexachlorinated norbornene moiety remains unchanged2,3. Only from photodieldrin, a cage-like derivative of dieldrin, have dechlorinated metabolites been reported4,5.
Detoxification of Copper and Chromium via Dark Hydrogen Fermentation of Potato Waste by Clostridium butyricum Strain 92
2022
The accumulation of various types of waste containing both organic and inorganic metal-containing compounds is extremely hazardous for living organisms. The possibility of polymer degradation, biohydrogen synthesis, and metal detoxification via the dark fermentation of model potato waste was investigated. For this purpose, the strict anaerobic strain was isolated and identified as Clostridium butyricum. The high efficiency of dark hydrogen fermentation of potatoes with yield of hydrogen in 85.8 ± 15.3 L kg−1 VSpotato was observed. The copperand chromium salts solutions were added to the culture fluid to obtain the concentrations of 50, 100, and 200 mg L−1 Cu(II) and Cr(VI) in the active pha…
